District 6: Bill Winter vs. Tom Tancredo
Remember conventional wisdom? It gave us all sort of useful information. Like how Both Ways Bob's district was the only contestable U.S. House seat in Colorado.
The problem with conventional wisdom was that it was conventional. The progressive wisdom is that the 6th District is currently held by a single issue loudmouth named Tom Tancredo. Said loudmouth isn't all that popular. And his party is as well-liked as a Raider at Mile High Stadium.
Sounds like a perfect storm for recently declared Democratic candidate Bill Winter. He's a Colorado native, so he knows about the problems the state faces. He's a vet, so his courage isn't in question. And he's a longtime activist, so he has plenty of friends in the Democratic party. Winter posted a manifesto of sorts over at democracyinprogress.org. Check it out.
